How to Get Dental Reimbursement from BlueCross BlueShield of SC

Does your health insurance plan give you any help with dental costs?

If you have a “BlueEssentials” plan with BlueCross BlueShield of SC (and if you have a Marketplace plan, it’s with BCBS), your plan includes a little bit of help with costs related to preventive dental care.

All BlueEssentials plans include dental allowances for adults and children for exams and cleanings.

Here are the details:

One exam every six months, $27 allowance first visit and $20 on the second visit.

One cleaning every six months, $40 allowance per visit for adults over the age of 20, and $31 per visit for a child.

Obviously, this won’t cover all of your costs, so you’re responsible for paying the balance. In order to get this benefit, you must submit a dental reimbursement form to BlueCross.
